Community and moderator requests and nominations for unmodded communities.

No bulk requests. That means one comm request per post. This is so we can sort out their interest individually.

Community request posts with enough upbears and a volunteer for moderation willing to submit an application will be created during mod drives.

popular culture

For observing and discussion of cultural phenomenon, entertainment, celebrities, internet culture, zeitgeist, etc.

Every newspaper has a culture section. The news comm doesn't like culture/entertainment articles. The chapo comm doesn't like stuff outside of the chapo subculture. People want the gossip comm to be closed. The slop comm is meant for screenshots of stupid internet posts.

Pop culture influences the way that people feel, think, and live their lives.

Pop culture would attract people to the hexbear instance.

I actually voiced a similar request in the thread about slop/gossip. I think a pop_culture community would be an actually enforceable scope. Places like r/fauxmoi are an example of fairly left-leaning popular culture communities.
